Modified Games to include all students


Modified Games
Goal: -  Build an inclusive climate where everyone wants to participate
-                               Use the game as the teacher – discovery activity as game is played before teaching occurs

Three keys to modified games:
Representation à Adaptation à Exaggeration

Representation:
Fukahara game. Lowered volleyball nets, use sponge ball. Slap ball and score a point by getting it over the baseline of the other team’s end.
a.     3 hits but can stop ball before hitting, same player can touch more than once
b.     3 hits but no stopping
c.      Extra points for hitting it outside





Links to volleyball? – moving to get body behind ball, teamwork, moving ball up court for easier point finish.

Exaggeration
Mini tennis in service boxes of tennis court OR tennis with sponge ball/wiffle ball

Adaptation
Hit & touch polyspot badminton – alternating shots with partner. Gets students moving and thinking about up/down aspects of sport.
